Atul, Ajoy and Sheetal: Let the fun begin!
First close-range view of the snow-clad peaks
Frozen Lake Serene (better visible in coming photos)
Lake Serene
Stone
Mt. Index
Blue skies are a delightfully rare sight when you live in Seattle :)
Stone in the middle of frozen lake
Aveek, walked bare-foot in icy lake water just for this shot :)
Sheetal, trying to follow the suite, but water was just too cold for her to cross it bare-foot.
What???
Vish, happy as ever :)
I can imagine how beautiful the reflection would look when the Lake Serene unfreezes
Reflection looks better in this one
Blue-blue-blue
Trying to pose
You shoot me, I shoot you :)
Ajoy: yo-man! :)
Nice view of the frozen lake from flat rock
Nice wide angle view

Love Birds
Look there!
Ajoy seems to be feeling a little shy today :)
Frozen Lake Serene and Mount Index
Gorgeous
I have no decent photo of myself in the whole album :(
Sheetal
Dude!
What a pose!
Love birds, with Lake and Mount Index
This isn't a waterfall, it is mini avalanche! Yes, it is snow that's falling, not water
Another view of the same avalanche
The tip of same avalanche
Here you see the avalanche just starting....
See here, it has progressed a little bit more
And here it is, reached the bottom
Shooting the avalanche
Sheetal was about to push Ajoy, but just then I was watching his back! He is safe for now :-P
I'm missing... because I was setting up the cam
Picture Perfect: With frozen Lake Serene & Mount index in backdrop!
Every time I set the camera up and ran to my spot, clouds would cover the sun. After 4-5 failed attempts, we all gave up. This is the brightest shot I could get.
The people: On the way back
On bridge
On Bridge
On the way back, Sun shone bright, and cloud-less sky made for a perfect landscape shot
Another shot
Waterfall
Would have been much better had foreground tree branches been missing
